Butterfly Soul❋

Once you happen upon poetry that whispers to your soul

and throbs in your heart

you'll be entranced.

A soul is hard to move

but poetry is a song

that only the soul hears;

a melody

only the heart can sing.

everyone's souls dance

to different beats,

some fast,

some slow,

turtles

and

tigers,

butterflies

and

grasshoppers.

And when a poem

takes the form

of a butterfly,

it throbs a butterfly soul,

and tiger form,

a tiger soul.

a poem that flits like fire,

or dances like wind

may escape

your grasp,

but just keep hunting

and you'll pounce

on poetry

that throbs

your soul,

whether you're

a dragon

or a butterfly.
